Re: [slim] It all started here .... and it still works!
2 SB3s, originally bought direct from Slim Designs in 2006. I still have one of them, but they both started re-booting. In the interim I bought a Grace Digital Audio player. That has horrible sound quality; even with external speakers. Ok for my workshop. Fortunately, phillipe_44 offered to replace the capacitors, on these re-booting SB3s, so I mailed him my 2 compromised players. I got them back, and I am listening to one of these SB3s as I type. I bought a 3rd SB-3 of E-Bay, so now have 3 functioning perfectly. chamonix's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=64929 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111285 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] It all started here .... and it still works!
Purely speculative, but I think the Sonos user profile is rather different to LMS. Seems to divide between youngsters with smartphones (and increasingly Sonos is reducing access to only the latest 'shiny' new models) anf older users who seem to often have 'more money than sense' (having 'invested' over 1 in speakers). Sonos seems popular in Scandinavia. Sonos control is largely limited to smartphones - there is no web-interface, and no linux controller. There is hardly any community development of programs, etc. and users are almost utterly dependent on Sonos fixing or at least not breaking working systems with so-called updates. The community forum can turn really fractious very quickly if anyone questions the value of some recent 'improvements'. And once a system update has taken place, there's no way to revert. My Sonos system is reduced to a Beam soundbar, and 2 speakers integrated into LMS using the upnpbridge plugin. The only plus in my book is that the speakers do sound good, but no longer such a plus compared to the Roberts S series or Libratone Zipps. LMS is light-years ahead of Sonos, and almost every other sound system. (For what it's worth my favourite LMS setup is a chromecast audio (gen 1 - 25 usd) linked to Avantree long-distance BT transmitter (40 usd) and a set of decent headphones - your choice!).

Re: [slim] It all started here .... and it still works!
My kids obviously are heavy SB users - each one has his own Radio. Plus shared units in Kitchen and living room (Touch). Some of our friends actually envy us, because this setup allows the kids to use Spotify without the need for a tablet or smartphone. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] It all started here .... and it still works!
Trying to bring the average age down for Squeezebox users in this family... As of a couple of months ago, two of the grandchildren have Jogglers in their rooms and a Receiver in another bedroom and I have some powered speakers and another Joggler to be put in their kitchen over Christmas - all connected to a Raspberry Pi running LMS hidden behind the TV.

Re: [slim] Tidal missing search results + more
Since the plugin's page says it was developed by Logitech, I wrote Logitech support and Tidal support. I hesitate to respond again, as I've given you the background already. But you seem not to accept answers you don't like... But I'll try again: whatever the other applications do, I don't know. But as we, Logitech as a company, have a contract with these music services, we are not allowed to use reverse engineered or otherwise not documented features. We are limited to whatever feature set is in the documentation they provide to us. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

I'm doing my best in this respect - my kids know how much of a Squeezebox fan I am, and every time they come home for a visit I have some new aspect to show off (Jivelite on the TV, Airplay to the whole house, Spotify connect etc), so I'm hoping that when they settle into their own homes they'll ask me to set up a Squeezebox system. But I don't think hifi is the priority for them that it was for me at their age. chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111285 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
